Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a valve arrangement for applying flowable medium to a substrate, in particular for applying hot glue, having a main valve body with at least one medium channel for flowable media which is able to be closed by a movable closure member and to which at least one nozzle part having a nozzle opening of the valve arrangement is connected, which nozzle part is fastened releasably to the main valve body and via which nozzle part the portions of the flowable medium can be dispensed onto a substrate, wherein the valve arrangement, for releasably fastening the nozzle part to the main valve body, has a pivotable lever, fastened in particular to the main valve body, of a fastening device fastened in particular to the main valve body, by means of which lever the nozzle part is able to pressed against the main valve body in a fastening position by application of a pressing force, wherein the pivotable lever is movable out of the fastening position and into a releasing position, in which it does not exert a pressing force and in
  • EP 1 243 342 B9 shows such a valve arrangement. It makes it possible to exchange the respective nozzle part and to insert for example one with a different application pattern. In that document, it easier to detach the nozzle part from the main valve body using the pivotable lever of the fastening device if, for example, when use is made of liquid adhesive, in particular hot melt, adhesions occur between the nozzle part and the main valve body. A user then moves a fastening screw which is arranged next to the nozzle part and the movement of which then brings about pivoting of the lever, exerting the detaching force on the nozzle part.
  • a drawback of the solution in EP 1 243 342 B9 is, inter alia, that on account of the design, the detaching forces (torques) that are transmissible when the lever is pivoted are not particularly large, in particular on account of the low effective lever length. Furthermore, the fastening screw is arranged very close to the lever with which the detaching forces are applied, which generally becomes very hot during operation, in particular when hot glue is used, with the result that there is the risk of the user suffering burns.

  • the pivotable lever for applying the detaching part is not—as in the prior art—pivoted, but is moved linearly, it is possible, inter alia, to exert particularly large detaching forces.
  • linear movability of the lever allows a movable operating part of the fastening device, for instance a screw, to be arranged at a relatively large distance from that lever portion that transmits the detaching force.

  • said lever in the first phase of its movement, is movable perpendicularly to a plane or the plane in which the nozzle opening of the nozzle part extends (before the detaching force is exerted, i.e., in the fastened, operational state), in particular downwardly.
  • the lever in a second phase of its movement, in particular following the first movement phase, the lever may be movable in particular to the side into the releasing position by a pivoting movement (guided along a predetermined movement curve) brought about in particular by the restoring forces of a spring of the fastening device.

  • the nozzle part may have a clamping surface against which the lever presses in the fastening position in order to transmit the pressing force to the nozzle part, and an in particular opposite push-off surface against which the lever presses at least temporarily during its movement into the releasing position, in order to transmit the detaching force to the nozzle part.
